The last race for this horse seems an improvement over the previous three, but it might just be an illusion.
There's a certain N.Y. trainer that when he has a cripple he ships to Parx. Sometimes he gets the win and loses the horse and sometimes only gets the horse claimed away. But the horses seldom win or even run again.

The fact that he got a top jock is a positive sign though. The top jockeys normally have sharp agents who will not put them on a cripple.
